Looking back on the summer, all the staff at Bees N Blooms are so grateful for each and every one of our visitors for supporting the farm! Thank you for visiting with your friends and family, enjoying the wonderful live music from our amazing lineup of local bands, feeding our happy chickens, and, most of all, appreciating the land and all our beautiful plant & animal friends. We loved having you, and we hope you enjoyed your time!
Now that the lavender has bloomed and our annual Lavender Daze have come to a close, we want to take this opportunity to share the many ways our lavender-lovers can still visit the farm & explore all it has to offer!
- On Monday evenings, join Blue Muse Sound Healing for a wonderful Sound Bath experience in our Lavender Labyrinth. More info and tickets here. Use the code lavender for a discount on your ticket! Sound baths create the space for self-healing and transformation. Let the fragrance of lavender fill and soothe your senses as the sound expands your awareness. Sound bath starts at 7 PM. Gates close at 6:45 PM. You are welcome to come walk the labyrinth and visit the Farm Stand from 6:15 onward. For questions, call (707) 228-6691.
- Visit us on July 23 for a “Learn About Lavender Workshop” to dive into the details of lavender cultivation, harvesting, and processing. Come on out and learn from Bees N Blooms’ co-owner & founder Susan Kegley. Wear the old clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. More info about the tour here. Tickets can be purchased through our Online Store.
- Plan a Private Event on the farm!We host parties, picnics, weddings, and more. See our Venue Rental page for more info!
- Become a Friend of the Labyrinth to have exclusive access to the farm and veggie garden. For 2022, the farm will be open to members on Thursday evenings from May 6 through October 14, 2022, from 6 to 9 PM. Members can bring a dinner, a bottle of wine, and a friend or two to enjoy the sunset over the Santa Rosa Plain. Artists find the light especially enchanting at this time of day. Members also get to do U-Pick from the Bees N Blooms vegetable garden. Find out more here!
- Come on out on our next public open-farm dates during the Art Trails weekends of September 24-25 and October 1-2. Free admission, no reservations required. We’ll have the farm open to the public for Sonoma County Art Trails weekends in late September and early October, hosting Erin Dertner’s amazing paintings. Erin has an eye for beauty and her paintings capture it expertly. The exhibit will be in the Event Center, but the rest of the farm will be open as well. Come and walk the labyrinth, check out the fall-blooming flowers, visit the chickens, and check out the farm stand for lavender goodies to take home.
If you can’t make it out to the farm, we’ve got you covered! Get your taste of the lavender goodness by checking out our online store to purchase lavender edibles & lavender body care products. From Bath Salts and Lip Balms made with our Certified Organic Lavender Essential Oil grown & produced here on the farm to culinary delights like Lavender Balsamic Vinegar, we truly have something available for everyone! Our online store has many items that make perfect for self-care goodies and gifts for loved ones. Explore our online shop here!
